29 Encoding Model ( GML wrapper ): GML feature skeleton (e.g. CSML) Binary file flesh (e.g. netcdf) xlink for mappings xlink:href = file resource xlink:role = nature of resource ( CF-netCDF ) xlink:arcrole = nature of xlink ( embed content ) OGC : Use of xlink in GML Profile for filebased data content link INSPIRE D2.7: Guidelines for the encoding of spatial data, Annex C (Encoding of file-based data) link

43 View services INSPIRE draft IR Our comments on v2: Suggest adding the following text: For three-dimensional and/or temporally-varying data, the view service shall support geometry selection over a vertical or temporal axis. NOTE: The WMS interface allows such geometry selection. E.g. a vertical slice can be generated using the ELEVATION parameter and a BBOX such as BBOX=X,y0,X,y1 (for a y-z slice); an x-t slice could be generated, for instance, using TIME=t1/t2 and BBOX=x0,Y,x1,Y.
